Free-Mo S Scale

End of the Line Modules built by Shane Lambert

These modules will be used on the end of the line Free-moS setups. They are designed to be the end of the line for the group and will allow additional switch leads for other modules The main track will come to a realistic end on these modules. These will have only one Free-moS end and the other end will be curved for a smooth transition on the end of the line.

I plan to build two of these and each will be 2 feet by 2 feet. The track on these will be hand-laid so I can give the ties and rail a beat up, almost unused appearance. The scenery will be mostly flat to allow operators to reach across and into other modules that may otherwise be blocked. These will have three legs to comply with S2.9 of the Frame and Legs Standard.

Why do we need an end module?

Unlike most club layouts, Free-moS (and other Free-mo standards) are rarely built as a continuous loop. Rather, they are built as and end-to-end layout to more closely represent the prototype railroad. This will protect the end of the line and usually offer some sort of stop protection to prevent trains from falling to the ground.
